#301144 is the flex chassis part number.

weird because the part no for the kits in the UK is being quoted as #300023 as well I would have thought it would have been different!

And since RCMARKET didn't know about it, I'm gonna guess it'll be marketed as a US kit. All speculation. I'll throw money at the first person who can get it to my door, I don't give a f*ck about the price.

Any news on the different kits - US - Rest of the world ?

I'm considering getting the '17 and have a question for Xray racers:

I currently drive a TRF419 and most of what would be option bits on an Xray came as standard on it (alloy steering arms, coated shafts, carbon bumper plates, alloy shock retainers.... I could go on!).

What are the must have option parts that are usually required for an Xray?

I race both indoors on a tight track and outdoors.

Option parts are just that. You don't really need them (save for some tuning peculiarity imposed by your track).

Funny you should mention alloy parts as standard. I think Xray plastics are way better. C hubs for instance don't break like you own the factory, that's for sure.

That said, even on TRF cars I prefer carbon plastics to alloy. They are lighter, cheaper, and less likely to tweak (come to think of it however, I don't think I've seen a carbon steering arm on a TRF car for a while, and I am not sure they exist even as "option")

Honestly my must haves would be;
Graphite arms
Graphite c-hubs
Thinner roll bars (1.3f, 1.2r)
Springs - 2pairs 2.7, 2pairs 2.6, 2 pairs progressive 2.5-2.8
2 pairs PSS shock inserts for outdoors.

The alloy steering is nice to have, but not a massive necessity IMO.

However hopefully the new kits might revise the standard parts included, which will reduce the parts list a bit.

Might not require the graphite arms as options on the new kit. :)

Thanks.

What's the expected price? I've seen it in the UK for £420 but I'm hoping it will be a bit cheaper than that.

I've seen it for £380 (Demon)
Though obviously nowhere has it yet

Anyone who is interested in getting on my preorder list just shoot me an email. There is a link in my signature. Preorders will receive a couple of my bumpers with their kits.
